We calculate the fragmentation functions for a gluon into $P$-wave $B_c$ mesons within the nonrelativistic QCD factorization framework, incorporating color-singlet and color-octet contributions. Ultraviolet divergences arising from…
The possibility to study the nature of the famous charged bottomonium-like states $Z_b(10610)$ and $Z_b(10650)$, which is by far the best known, from their inclusive photoproduction off nuclei near the kinematic threshold is investigated…
In this work, we explore the discovery potential of Vector-Like Singlet Top quarks ($T$) at a future $\mu p$ collider with center-of-mass energies of 5.29, 6.48, and 9.16 TeV, providing a unique environment to probe beyond Standard Model…
The evolution of the vacuum state in a time-dependent external electric field of arbitrary polarization is investigated within a nonperturbative framework of quantum kinetic equations (QKEs). In our previous work [Phys. Rev. Res. 6, 043009…
We explore the potential for extracting proton structure functions, proton parton density functions (PDFs), and the strong coupling $\alpha_s(M_z^2)$, using early science data from the future Electron-Ion Collider (EIC), both standalone,…
A comparative description is made of the measurements at LHC of pp elastic scattering at 13 TeV by the ATLAS and TOTEM Collaborations. In the total and differential cross sections we show that the differences are justified through single…
We investigate the inclusive weak decay $\Xi_{bcq} \to \Xi_{ccq} + X$ ($q=u,d,s$) within the framework of the non-relativistic potential quark model. Treating the heavy diquarks $\Phi_{bc}$ and $\Phi_{cc}$ as compact color anti-triplet…
Although heavy-quark symmetry predicts a $B_1\bar{B}$ molecular partner of the $D_1\bar{D}$ molecule, no such state has been observed. We propose that the experimentally observed $\Upsilon(11020)$ may be a candidate for such a state,…
Interference effects are an important consequence of a correct description in physics theories within and beyond the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics. However, many current theoretical descriptions as well as experimental searches…
In this work, we investigate the possibility that supersymmetric structures may leave observable imprints in the stochastic gravitational-wave (GW) background generated during the reheating era. To this end, we construct a phenomenological…
Neutrino oscillations continue to provide one of the most promising avenues for uncovering physics beyond the Standard Model. In particular, beyond-standard-model neutrino matter interactions may perturb neutrino oscillations in matter,…
We investigate how effectively final-state jet substructure can discriminate between QCD Compton and quark-antiquark annihilation processes from photon-jet production in $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV. Using infrared- and…
Neutrino physics offers unique insights into phenomena beyond the Standard Model (BSM). This thesis presents phenomenological investigations organized around three pillars: consolidation of the three-flavor oscillation paradigm, exploration…
We investigate a minimal extension of the Standard Model with a real singlet scalar and a singlet Dirac fermion acting as dark matter. Unlike a conventional singlet scalar setup, we assume that the singlet scalar does not acquire a vacuum…
We re-evaluate the viability of a kinetically mixed dark photon ($A^{\prime}$) as a solution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment $(g-2)\mu$ discrepancy and the ATOMKI nuclear anomalies near 17~MeV, using the final FNAL measurement and the…
I describe my activities in Flavour Physics from 1976 to 2026. However, this 50th anniversary is not the only motivation for this writing. The second reason is the 350th anniversary of the discovery of the first animalcula by van…
This work explores the discovery potential of the first-generation weak isosinglet Vector-Like Leptons (VLLs), denoted by $E^\pm$, via pair production at future electron-positron colliders. Our analysis adopts a comprehensive framework that…
We investigate the heavy quarkonium hybrid mesons with exotic quantum numbers $J^{PC}=2^{+-}$ via QCD sum rule method. We construct the currents with three Lorentz indices and calculate the correlation functions up to dimension six at the…
The all-sky very-high-energy ($10^4-10^6$ GeV) atmospheric muon flux measured by IceCube shows a spectral hardening at the highest energies, indicating the presence of a prompt component. IceCube has also measured the atmospheric muon…
We study the Dalitz decays of heavy quarkonia, which result from the internal virtual photon conversion into an $\ell^+ \ell^-$ lepton pair. Heavy-quark symmetries allow us to establish systematic relations between transitions of different…
